Bringing vanlife home

Three days three lakes Driving from the coast we headed straight in to the heatwave. Three days through France stopping at three lakes. First stop at Angouleme - a quiet place in the countryside by a lake. Super hot lake. And for some reason a lot of british people swimming about in it. Second stop at a Water resort in the Loire valley - expensive, but so worth it, spent the whole day and night in the pool and lake. Also got to watch the Sweden- Germany game on a huge screen.

Handling Heat wave & Other waves

I've said this before, but I do love Biarritz and Hossegor area. Surf culture, cozy cafes, nice beaches and good food. And all the hydrangeas in the world! Heat Wave & Other Waves It's been SOO hot that we've practically moved to the beach. If anything has to be done, it has to happen pre lunch, then head to beach and set up camp for the rest of the day. Swimming, bathing, surfing - simply being in the water. The waves have been petite, but Mattias always have fun in the wate

About Amsterdam - and the living like a local

Getting around in Amsterdam on bikes is the thing to do, seeing the lovely canals and cute houses all the way down to the canals. Biking around making us feel like locals, ’cause it seems wherever you have to go in Amsterdam you go by bike. Young, medium or old. Love it! We got to catch up with a friend from Amsterdam and getting some tips on where to go. There´s definitely a chilled out hippie vibe and loved the big park - Voldenpark where they had some great playgrounds too

White Christmas & Now What?

Spending time in winter wonderland, happy to see family and friends and trying to adjust to the cold. Gearing up with merino wool, hats and jackets. Vanlife went from 20 degrees plus to minus 15. Zoey is happier than ever about the REAL SNOW :) Everyone is happy to see us and hear about the trip. Most asked question this far is: - How does it feel being back? There’s definitely a mixed set of emotions going on... Home is where you park it Back at the house and it kind of feel

Spain - Citylife, oranges & flamingos

Seville - Surf, surf, surf, Why can’t we look at more churches?, says the five-yearold. She loved the cathedral in Lisbon. The gold, the decorations, the high ceiling and that there was a sign saying you need to be quiet in there. Alright, so when in Seville we decided to take a look at one of the three biggest churches in the WORLD. Once there, at this GIANT church Zoey decided She did not want to go in to a Big church, She was way to busy with her new spanish fan. And it t

Cascais. The glam life meets being sick in a campervan.

Time to try the van with a fourth companion. My mum joined us and we managed to make it even more interesting trying out food poisoning, the flu and all sorts of rashes that same week. However we pulled through, and also celebrated our girl turning 5. Cake, presents and the opportunity to be boss for the day - great success! Lourinha Took a day with friends at Dinosaur Park. Apparently Lourinha has a Big amount of dino findings and a lot of dinosaurs named after the town. Lik

If there are waves, we surf

That’s the rule, we were told at WSL, and on it went for the three days that we stayed at Supertubos... Peniche & Baleal Surfing the beaches here is great, it seems the swell is always coming in from somewhere. However you have to get past the seaweed and the surf schools. Parking for night has not bored us. There was the In front of the main beaches in Baleal parking, which happens to be right outside a club. The kind of club that doesn’t shut until 5... And the cliff parkin

Portugal. Never a dull moment.

We heard a lot of great things about Portugal; beautiful, great surf and being able to park anywhere. So there was a lot to live up to... It’s really growing on us having been here for a while now, finding our favourite spots to stay and enjoying some great views and meeting a lot of nice people to hang with here. And the surf... oh yes! Belmonte Ended up here by taking a wrong turn, which turned out really good. Watching the sun set behind Torre at Serra de Estrela, the high

North of Spain. Great surf, great views & tilted car

Scents of spring in the spanish air. Setting up my office outside the van cause we have fast wi-fi for once, feeling all Cinderella with birds churping around me. Zarautz Parked our campervan on a mountain, breathtaking view of the ocean, and breathtaking 450 stairs down to the beach. San Vicente de Barquera Great beach, with surf for both of us. Best surf session for me this far. Colder water though, bringing us our first cold. Not loving the town centre, nothing much to off

Beloved Biarritz

Biarritz has been good to us. I love this place, even though we have all had our first surf injuries, the nights have been too hot for my liking, a bird shat on me, and we have had a few weird wake up calls* It is all forgotten 'cause of the charm, the surf in the mornings, cafés and shopping in the afternoon and dinner on the beach lifestyle. Parked right next to beach Milady, the beach next to Cote ’d Basque, the classic Biarritz surf beach. This was apparently where the f

Dune du Pilat - it’s a sand thing

Had a little vanlife pause. Flew back to Stockholm to do a job for Axfoundation. The life of a freelance photographer. Strange feeling to be in Stockholm and not heading home to my house. Dune Du Pilat - the biggest sand dune in Europe I knew before we left we would have sand everywhere. Turned out to be a true story, the sand is everywhere. Bags, everywhere in the van, the bed, the clothes, the pockets and the bed. To be honest, there is sand coming out of my ears. So we dec

Hanging loose

As soon as we made it to the Surfcoast ( the european one ) we really got in to the whole hang loose feel. Everything is much more relaxed here. Everyone flipflops around with sand and salt in their hair looking at the waves. Topics of the day concerns high tide, low tide and the swell. It seems people have similar thoughts on the important things in life and we even met some people that are doing a similar van, surf and yoga journey. The places we’ve been to this far is Bisc

The Loire Valley- another day another castle

Really getting the hang of vanlife now, parking outside a castle and feeling ever so great. Not always having electricity and wifi and thinking it’s alright. I actually started reading a book the other day. Chambord This castle is stunning, we passed it on a trip before and this time we thought, why not stay this time. Apparantly the guy who built it, around 14 th century was going to use it as a hunting castle and while it took 30 years to build he only ever stayed in it 40

Mosel & Champagne - Autobahn, wine and castles

If autobahn taught us anything its the frase Stau gefahr, yepp that means this is gonna a take a while. I was even cleaning up the van on the way, anyone who knows me knows cleaning is not my fave thing to pass my time with, so oh yeah there was time to be passed. Cochem, Mosel valley Stunning valley with wine ranks on the sloping hills down towards river Mosel. Biking around on great bike roads and hiking up to look at old castle Reichsburg. Totally impressed with all the se

Hello Denmark

The simple ways of van life Sweden - we will be back in December sometime, if all goes well. A bit nervous about being away for so long for some reason, some kind of out-of-the-comfort-zone- feeling. The vanlife has started out well, only hit my head twice today :) It’s a simpler life, a minimalistic living that feels good to try out, especially since I’m all concerned about our mother nature these days, with crazy climate changes and all the plastic in the waters everywhere.

Endless Summer

Hot, hot, hot... Sweden. Who would have thought that the one summer where we are about to have a bit of an *endless summer scenario would turn out to be the hottest summer in Swedish history? Oh well, I guess we are getting acclimated to the heat. Before heading for Europe we are out and about seeing friends and family trying to unwind in this scorching summer we are having in Sweden right now. First stop Norrland. Involved a lot of picking blueberrys, walking the dog, swimmi

Vanlife starts now

And we're off! Van is packed, house is rented out, route is kind of ready and we are so ready to hit the road. Time for leaving our everyday meetings and sitting by the computer desk life for five months. Me and my surferdude heading for a peaceful surf and yoga lifestyle adventure around Europe, with our four-year-old daughter aka little miss Bossy Rollercoaster. We have talked about this trip for some time now... mid life crisis, honeymoon or whatever it is, we are stoked a
